Puma sweatshirt

Puma is a renowned German multinational corporation that designs and manufactures athletic and casual footwear, apparel, and accessories. Founded in 1948 by Rudolf Dassler, following a split between him and his brother Adolf (who founded Adidas), the brand has become a staple in the sportswear industry.

While the brand's heart remains in Herzogenaurach, Germany, its manufacturing footprint is global. Puma products are produced in several countries, including Vietnam, Cambodia, China, and Bangladesh, to support its worldwide distribution network. This allows the brand to maintain a complex supply chain that caters to diverse markets.

Ownership of Puma has evolved significantly; currently, it is a publicly traded company on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. For many years, the French luxury group Kering was the majority owner, but they have significantly reduced their stake, making Puma an independent entity with a broad base of institutional and private shareholders.
